INSTRUCTIONS FOR A TAKE-HOME EXAM ON MYEXAMS
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE ANSWERING
THE EXAMINATION QUESTIONS.
1. The examination question paper counts 100 marks. Answer all five (5) of the questions.
2. This examination question paper consists of seven (7) pages.
3. The duration of the examination is four (4) hours. In addition to the duration of the
examination indicated on the timetable, you are given 30 minutes to FINALISE the
uploading of your exam file. Your exam file must be uploaded via the myExams
platform on 14 October 2024 BEFORE 12:30 (South African Standard Time).
4. This is a limited open book examination. You may refer to the Constitution of the
Republic of South Africa, 1996, the prescribed textbook and Tutorial Letter 102 BUT NO
OTHER ONLINE SOURCES, ESPECIALLY CHATGPT, COURSEHERO, STUDOCU,
TELEGRAM, ETC. DO NOT CUT AND PASTE ANSWERS FROM ANY SOURCE.
5. An open-book exam is a test at a higher level than the usual type of exam, where memory
is tested as much as insight. You are expected to prove that you can use information,
rather than merely repeat it. In brief, what is being tested is factual knowledge,
understanding and the correct application thereof, not memory skills. You need to
demonstrate that you know what statutory or other provisions and case law are
applicable in a specific context. You are expected to identify precisely what information
applies, and then explain why you think so.
5.1 As you have the Constitution and textbook available when answering questions, we do
not give marks for direct quotations. You are therefore assessed on your level of
understanding of the legal principles by looking at how well you convey the principles.
6. The examination is proctored via the Invigilator App and Turnitin. You must activate (log
in to) the Invigilator App between 07:45 and 08:30 by scanning the QR code (5b3deea0).

Invigilator app, please WhatsApp the
